1.0 Introduction
Please see the background of the program in the 1st quarter report, 2017.
Currently the program has six desalination plants located at six different villages those can produce more than 50 thousand liters clean water everyday though we can not use the full capacity due to various reasons, such as, black out of electricity, storage capacity, lacking of transport to supply water to distant places, etc.
2.0 Production and distribution of water
In the current reporting period (2nd quarter of 2017) more than 1.14 million liters of clean water has been produced on an average in each month (Table1) under the program. In this period production and free distribution of water has increased by 22.92% and 24.43% respectively (Table3). On the contrary, income from selling water has reduced slightly (10.29%) and expenditure has increased by 2.16% in this period of time (Table 1&3).
[Please note: There are 3 tables in our report that can not be post here. So I had submitted our Second Quarterly Report through email. But I can not see it on our page. Therefore, I am submitting here in the attachment. Thanks]
3.0 Staff strength
The staff strength of the program remains the same as in the last quarter. For details please see the last report.
4.0 The challenges
The challenges of the program also remain more or less the same. It needs to generate more revenue to meet up its administrative costs. To make the program a centralized water supply system the progrm needs few more staff, set up delivery points and supply van.
5.0The future plan
To achieve our target that is stated in the campaign document, we are running the fundraising campaign, if we are successful, we will strengthen the capacity of delivery system so that we can supply the water at the door steps of the beneficiaries. At the same time we will try to sell some water to the nearest markets to generate more revenue as there is great need of clean water.
